Breaking news about our Lou, a lost soul no more!

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and not lost soul anymore lovers! Our Lou was adopted this evening by a “wonderful” family according to the Campbell County Pound.

Lou, AKA Duke, was all set to go to the wonderful Outlaw Basset Hound Rescue in OH. He was to be transported out to them tomorrow by when fate stepped in twice. First in the form of Outlaw and then in the form of his new forever home. It was love at first sight and Lou (I think the family is going to keep the new name) is probably laying in someone’s lap as I type.

Lou is a young boy with a super sweet disposition. He was an “at large” repeat offender and the shelter workers were hoping that he did not go back into his unsafe environment. However, the law in Campbell County gave the previous owners 7 days to claim him and pay his fines which they did not.

Lou became a ward of the county yesterday and it took less then 24 hours for him to get scooped up and become the newest member to a beaming and overjoyed family.

I don’t think I have ever helped a lost soul that found a home so quick! Some times the planets line up!

Cheers to Lou and to all of you who slung him drool. IT WORKED!

Here is to hoping we get more updates about Lou in bassethoundtown. Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

    I am so glad Lou has a new family. I just recently found a stray Basset(sweet as he can be) and we tried to find his family and could not. I ask my uncle if he would want a playmate for daisy(his 3 year old basset) because Cubby(13 year old basset) had just passed away. He took him in and they LOVE one another!!!! He named him Junior.LOL!! I wanted him to name him Fred because he looked like Fred from Smokey and the Bandit, but Jr. fits him just as good.
